Who should participate?
The membership is designed for leaders in Sales, Marketing, Product and Customer Success roles in K-12 ed-tech companies. There are distinct peer groups for Functional leaders (VPs, Directors and Senior Managers) and Emerging Leaders (first-time managers and aspiring leaders).
At this time, there are no dedicated peer groups for Executive Leaders (SVP, C-level) , however those individuals still can access all other member benefits (discussion threads, events, webinars, curated resources, member directory).
What is Founding Membership?
Founding Membership is a limited opportunity to join the new online community at its launch stage. These members will receive first access as the platform opens and will also receive the Insight Videos and Mini Courses (when released in early 2026) at no additional charge.
Founding Members lock in special pricing that will never increase. Once our Founding Memberships have been filled, only standard memberships will be available, and will be subject to periodic price increases.
Do members need to attend every meeting and event?
No. Members can engage at the level that fits their role and schedule. Some will prioritize monthly peer Forums, while others may participate more through asynchronous discussion threads or Collective Conversations. The online community is designed to be valuable whether a member joins frequently or taps in selectively.
Does the Collective have memberships at the corporate level?
Yes. Please visit this page to learn more about our flat-rate corporate membership.
Is the Collective membership open to those who are currently in a job transition?
Yes. Our online community is intended for ed-tech professionals who want to learn and grow as leaders, as well as share their knowledge and experience with others. We welcome your contributions to this community. Please note that our user guidelines prohibit direct solicitation for employment opportunities, freelance work, or requests that are beyond the scope of the learning environment that may be unwanted by fellow members.
